Rundquist said he retired because he wanted to take time to do the things he enjoyed. He said he planned to hunt, fish, carve wood and travel. RUNDQUIST, WHO HAS been at KU for 32 years, said he had been counseling director since 1975. Before becoming director, Rund-qut said, he worked in the center of the city. of counseling psychology. After he became director of the center, he said, he continued teaching in the department. Edward Heck, chairman of the search committee for a counseling center director, said the search for Rundquist's replacement had begun in mid-November. Rundquist announced his retirement in September. Advertisements were sent to about 700 different sources, he said. They were sent to counseling centers, counseling training institutions and three national counseling publications. About 12 people have responded to the advertisements, Heck said. DAVID AMBLER, VICE chancellor for student affairs, said the candidates were being screened to determine who would be interviewed. A qualified candidate must have earned a doctorate in counseling, have practiced counseling and have worked in a student service program in higher education, such as the counseling center, Ambler said. Heck said the director's time was split between directing the counseling center and teaching classes in the department of counseling psychology. Station asks nod to build transmitter A request to build a transmitter tower and an antenna that would carry the signal of a full-power TV station based in Lawrence will be held by the board of Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission. Monte Miller, president of Miller Broadcasting Inc., said the transmitter would be built in Wakarusa Township. Miller Broadcasting would own the new station, which would not be affiliated with a major network. Its signal would cover Lawrence as well as the Kansas City metropolitan area and Topeka. Approval of the tower is the first step in construction of the TV station. Miller said. He hopes the station can begin broadcasting next fall. THE PLANNING commission will meet at 6:30 p.m. in the City Commission chambers at City Hall.
